Mrs. Zhang smiled and said: "It seems that His Highness and the Crown Princess are in love, and the Empress will soon have her grandson in her arms."
Zhu Biao smiled and said: "When I return to the capital, I will transfer Zhang Wei to the capital, so that you and the queen can be companions."
Mrs. Zhang quickly knelt down on the ground: "This slave is not for..."
Zhu Biao waved his hand. His status was here. He would be lying if he said the Zhang family had no ideas. However, Zhu Biao didn't care. Everyone has selfish desires. This is normal.
Except for his father, the emperor, and his mother, everyone in the world wanted something from him, whether it was the court officials or the servants around him. It would be meaningless to be picky. Besides, Zhu Biao also enjoyed the feeling that everyone wanted something from him.
Zhu Biao asked Liu Jin to help Zhang up: "You don't need to think too much. After I return to Beijing, I will be in charge of the government. It is the time when I need my confidants. Zhang Wei is also from Prince Wu's palace, not to mention you."
The affection is there.”
It would be a fool not to accept the words at this point. Mrs. Zhang bowed her head and said: "My whole family is willing to die for Your Highness."
Zhu Biao nodded, and Mrs. Zhang was also helped up by Liu Jin. She sat aside and talked for a while. Near noon, the prefect of Pingyang came to invite him, and Zhu Biao followed him out.
On top of the largest restaurant in the city, Zhu Biao looked out the window at the endless stream of pedestrians on the street. The shouts of the vendors were also heard. Zhu Biao smiled and said to the Kaiping magistrate beside him: "It seems that you are doing a good job, sir."
, people's livelihood in Kaiping Prefecture is prosperous, and people live and work in peace and contentment, thank you for your hard work."
The prefect of Kaiping hurriedly said: "This is all relying on the kindness of the Holy One. The ministers are just doing their duties."
The rest of the people didn't dare to accept it and accepted the praise. But if there was some trouble on the street, how could they shirk it? Wouldn't that be a slap in the face? Everything must be left with room.
Zhu Biao didn't care either. There were only a few people in Pingyang Prefecture who were qualified to eat with him. The prefect of Pingyang even specially called Zhang Wei. I have to say that people in the local officialdom spoke very nicely. Zhu Biao was impressed by one meal.
It feels comfortable to hold.
He can't even remember the things he did since he was a child. These people can even remember the specific dates. Even Zhu Biao, who has been accustomed to hearing flattery since he was a child, is a little embarrassed.
After finishing the meal, the prefect of Pingyang said with a smile: "Pingyang Mansion is just a small place. When Your Highness comes, I and the others don't have much to offer. I'm really ashamed."
Zhu Biao smiled. It seemed that there was some kind of program, but he was afraid that Zhu Biao wouldn't like it, so he said this. However, it was rare for Zhu Biao to relax for a day, so naturally he was just careless.
After saying a few polite words, a group of people came up from below. After kowtowing to Zhu Biao and saluting, they began to prepare for the performance. Zhu Biao originally thought it was an opera, but now it looks like he is going to write a book.
Zhu Biao looked at it with interest. The man looked about fifty years old. He was standing behind a table and chair holding a folding fan and was shaking a little. Zhu Biao said, "Sit down and talk."
In this era, it is very rare to live for more than fifty years. The old man felt much more relaxed after sitting down, then he patted Xingmu gently and started the performance.
What he said was called "The Tripitaka of the Tang Dynasty" and Zhu Biao thought it was new. It was quite interesting to listen to the early version of Sun Xingzhe while sipping tea and digesting food. The story is still very different from the future Journey to the West.
of.
For example, Sun Monk himself does not have any powerful magic power. He protected Tang Monk on the westward journey. In addition to relying on some of his own transformation spells, he also relied on the three treasures given by "Bishamon King Brahma of the North": the invisible hat, the gold
Ring tin staff and alms bowl.
The invisible hat can be transformed into a "sky-shielding array", which is probably a protective barrier. The tin staff can be transformed into followers such as "Yaksha" and "Iron Dragon" to participate in battles. The alms bowl can extinguish fires or contain water waves.
When encountering a problem that cannot be solved by the three magic weapons, he just shouts the word "Heavenly King" and has his own "Heavenly King" to help him out. It is comparable to a plug-in. The most outstanding feature of this Monkey King is his wit rather than his bravery.
The atmosphere became much more harmonious after watching, and the prefect of Pingyang also began to talk to Zhu Biao about his philosophy of governing Pingyang. Zhu Biao was in a good mood and listened a lot. He felt that the prefect of Pingyang was also considered a talent.
Zhu Biao had almost listened. Seeing that the old man was also thirsty, he said a compliment to Liu Jin. The others also saw that His Highness had listened almost, and after another polite greeting, Zhu Biao stood up and replied.
Zhang Mansion.
After he left, the prefect of Pingyang breathed a sigh of relief. Accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger, not to mention he also wanted the tiger to remember him. I am afraid that the opportunity to be in contact with His Highness like this will rarely come twice in his life. Naturally, he must try his best.
.
Now that he has established a relationship with the Zhang family and left a good impression in front of His Highness the Crown Prince today, as long as he finds an opportunity for Zhang Wei to mention it to His Highness the Crown Prince, it will be a matter of course for him to be transferred to the capital in the future.
Zhu Biao returned to Zhang's house, said a few words to Mrs. Zhang and then went back to her room to rest. They had dinner together in the evening and asked Mrs. Zhang to go back to her room and write a letter to Queen Ma. They would send it back with Zhu Biao's letter tomorrow morning.
Beijing.
Zhu Biao also went back to his room to let Liu Jin prepare a letter. First, he wrote a letter to his father. Comrade Zhu didn't say anything, but if Zhu Biao didn't write to him, then he would just wait for his shoes to wear out.
First, he asked about his health and told him to rest early every day and not to work too hard. Then he talked about the situation he had seen along the way and that the court should re-photograph people to inspect the granaries in various places.
Then he wrote a letter to his mother. He mainly wrote about how good he was and how healthy he was now. He asked her not to worry. He also came to see Yu'er specially and told Queen Ma that he planned to transfer the Zhang family back to the country in the future.
Beijing, so that she would have someone to talk to in the future.
Of course, Zhu Biao went against his conscience and said that Zhang Wei was very capable and was going to be transferred to the capital for reuse, otherwise Queen Yima would definitely not be willing to do so.
After Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor, he wanted to find people from Queen Ma's clan to entrust him with official titles, but Empress Ma flatly refused, saying: "It is against the law to favor the family of a relative when assigning titles and titles."
At that time, not only Zhu Yuanzhang but also Zhu Biao gave some advice. Empress Ma did not have no feelings for her relatives. She often asked people to send the clothes she made and the money she saved to her relatives. She wanted to do so.
Set an example for the empress of the Ming Dynasty to prevent future relatives from interfering in politics.
It's great that Queen Ma has such an idea, and Zhu Yuanzhang is also satisfied. However, Zhu Biao has to feel sorry for his mother. Kunning Palace is boring and tight. How much difference can there be between Chang Luohua and Queen Ma in terms of seniority?
Yes, all the wives outside who enter the palace have their own agenda.
There are only a few people who can really make her happy. Each of them, father and son, is busier than the other. Empress Ma's relatives are indeed not very promising in this generation, and making trouble in Beijing is troublesome, so Yu'er is still reliable.
This matter is not a problem at all to Zhu Biao. He can make his mother happy with just a little effort, so why not do it?
